Welcome to this month’ s edition of Construction Today, where innovation, people, and performance take center stage. Our AI feature looks beyond the hype to a critical issue facing
the industry now: until clear legal standards are established, owners, contractors, and partners must proactively address AIrelated risk within their contracts. We also examine the evolving labor landscape and its impact on project delivery. In addition, we’ re pleased to present a case study from Cory Sherman of Safety Systems Management on Choate Construction’ s safety revolution. Rounding out the issue are in-depth profiles and insights from companies across multiple construction sectors, offering practical perspectives for today’ s industry leaders.
